FAQs

What type of air compressor is needed for this tool?

You will need an air compressor capable of providing a consistent 90 PSI and an average of 4.5 CFM (Cubic Feet per Minute) for optimal performance.

This kit is specifically designed for 50mm (2 inch) diameter quick-change sanding discs with a 6.35mm steel arbor compatible with the included backing pad.

How do I change the sanding discs?

The quick-change system allows you to simply unscrew the current disc from the backing pad arbor and screw on a new one. The backing pad arbor itself is secured in the die grinder via a collet.

What materials can the sanding discs be used on?

The aluminum oxide sanding discs are suitable for a wide range of materials including wood, paint, varnish, plastic, plaster, and various metals.

Does this kit come with everything needed to start?

The kit includes the air die grinder, a quick-change backing pad, and 41 assorted grit sanding discs. You will need to provide an air compressor and air hose.

Troubleshooting

Die grinder not starting or low power

Check air hose connection for leaks, ensure air pressure is at 90 PSI, and verify the air inlet is not obstructed. Lubricate the tool with air tool oil.

Sanding disc not staying attached

Ensure the disc is fully screwed onto the backing pad arbor. Check that the backing pad arbor is securely tightened in the die grinder's collet.

Excessive vibration during operation

Verify that the sanding disc is centered on the backing pad and securely attached. Ensure the die grinder's collet is properly tightened.

Overheating of the tool

Ensure adequate air supply (4.5 CFM minimum). Do not force the tool; allow the speed to do the work. Take breaks to prevent overheating.
